The people of the Arctic lived in igloos during the winter, while subarctic peoples built lodges.
To complete the sentence using the drop-down menu correctly, follow these steps:
1. Read the sentence carefully to understand what information is being asked for.
2. Look at the options in the drop-down menu:
- Igloos
- Wigwams
- Cliff dwellings
- Longhouses
3. Consider the environment and cultural context mentioned in the sentence, which refers to the Arctic and subarctic regions.
4. Arctic regions are known for their extremely cold temperatures, icy landscapes, and snowy conditions. Therefore, the dwelling options suited to such a climate would be important to the people living there.
5. Based on the above information, select "igloos" from the first drop-down menu, as igloos are traditional dwellings made of snow and ice that provide insulation and protection from the cold.
6. Next, move to the second drop-down menu:
- Built lodges
- Carried tepees
- Dug holes
7. Subarctic regions are slightly warmer than the Arctic but still experience cold winters. The people living there would require a different kind of shelter.
8. Consider the options in the second drop-down menu. Lodges and tepees are commonly associated with Native American tribes, while digging holes does not seem like a viable option.
9. Based on the above information, choose "built lodges" from the second drop-down menu, as lodges provide a more suitable type of shelter for people in subarctic regions.
Following these steps, the completed sentence would read:
"The people of the Arctic lived in igloos during the winter, while subarctic peoples built lodges."
